Allow longer time to report road closure.
When I come upon a road closure, I need to avoid emergency vehicles and workers, and be careful of other traffic. Once I get clear of the incident, I try to report it. But by that time, Waze won't let me select the intersection where the problem was. It seems that you must be in the immediate are of the road to report an issue. This often means that I am unable to report road closure issues when I encounter them. Waze should allow a longer time to report closures. (Why is there any limit at all? I may feel…

Add voice message to Update Request to reduce time reporting map errors to car drivers.
Currently there is only text comment option which restricts the driver from adding details to the UR. Adding voice message could help to waze editor getting more specific information and minimize message asking additional information.
This functionality improve URs resolution statistics.

Inclusão de Quebra-molas como aviso perene.
Creio que as lombadas ou quebra-molas deveriam ter uma opção de alerta de obstáculo perene. Existem muitos deles sem sinalização formal e a opção perene, assim como radares, evitaria muitos acidentes.

Disable this feature (with Police exposing) for Ukraine immediately
Dear Waze.
My name is Mykhailo. and i'm a QA lead from Ukraine in a similar product as you.
I've been using your app for years, which I'm thankful for.Today, in this dark age, our country use your app to get away from hot spots to west.
Although , the feature that expose Police spots helps russian's separatists escape.
PLEASE I'm begging you to disable (at least temporary) this feature (with Police exposing) for Ukraine immediately .16 votes -
Finger hold for icon placement
When placing a hazard or police location on the map, currently you have to tap on the screen to bring up the choices, tap for police, tap again for their location and then tap again to place it on the map. Why not after the first tap, if you keep your finger on the screen, automatically show the options, slide your finger to the one you want, and then once your finger is released, the icon drops straight into the map.
Simple and less steps to get the right icon on the map and also lessens the time concentrating on…15 votes -
Colour rings around reports
Have colour rings around reported Hazzards on a timer. Eg it's red when first reported and stays red when the report "still there" button is pressed by re setting a timer. The ring turns blue after a set time until or unless the "not there" button is pressed and the report has been removed. This will let drivers know if the report is current and up to date or if it's an old report and has been ignored and not removed.

Add feature to differentiate between POLICE and POLICE SPEED TRAPS
Add feature to differentiate between POLICE and POLICE SPEED TRAPS

to Waze-Customer-Support, supportI would like to ask for the following feature to be added to make things clearer for UK drivers.
Add an additional notification icon for use in the UK which will allow us to distinguish between POLICE and POLICE SPEED TRAPS. UK drivers don't seem to understand that the POLICE icon is for POLICE SPEED TRAPS, and not just for whenever they see a POLICE car, and as they panic every time they see a police car they want…

Police reporting needs to be switched back
The police reporting system needs to be switched back. Driving along the interstate, I frequently report police sitting on the opposite side of the road. I also report police sitting in the median checking for speeders both ways. The "other side" button needs to return.
Thanks

Persistence of Pothole Reports
Potholes persist until repaired. Pothole reports should persist until consistent replies with “not there”. If the majority of people are confirming, then allow the pothole report to persist (edited from “until someone reports “not there”)

Speed camera
For UK, notify drivers both sides of the road for upcoming speed traps (non motorway routes). Cameras catch traffic going both directions, not just the side the Speed camera is on.

Do not cancel driver reports for mis-taps
Suggestion: Do not dump Wazers completely out of the reporting process because of a mis-tap or error.
Problem solved: Prevents Wazers from having their attempts to help totally aborted due to mistakes, which is discouraging, frustrating, annoying, demoralizing, and may discourage Wazers from submitting future reports.
Discussion:
When a user opens the report feature on a mobile device, they are presented with a collection of icons to choose from. If, because they are driving and trying to pay attention to the road, they happen to miss the target and accidentally tap the space between icons, the report display cancels out.…

Alerta de lombadas
O waze poderia alertas de lombadas, no brasil o poder público deveria cuidar das sinalizações mas não o faz, os alertas podem ser construídos como os radares

Since Brazil has a lot of potholes, I think there should be a shortcut for potholes on the screen for the drivers to be able to report
